Our mission is to provide the highest standard of imaging services and consultation in order to meet the needs of patients as determined by the medical staff. We assist colleagues in making diagnosis and management by utilizing radiological techniques, and we provide a state-of-the-art interventional radiology service. In addition to ensuring minimizing radiation exposure to patients and workers, we participate in the educational program for interns, medical students, residents, radiographers, and trainees.

Vision

Our vision is to maintain a leadership position in imaging and intervention and to update and expand the imaging facilities to keep up with the technical advances and medical requirements. On the academic level, the department will continue to strengthen the residency program and engage in active research in collaboration with colleagues at AUBMC, as well as regional and international institutions.

Magnetic resonance imaging, including MR angiography and spectroscopy. A special cardiac MR package is available to provide a full, non-invasive assessment of cardiac function and perfusion. There are facilities of imaging children and other patients under general anesthesia with full monitoring.

Residency ProgramThe Department of Diagnostic Radiology offers a postgraduate training program of five years in diagnostic and interventional radiology, including one year of internship.

Radiologic Technology Training Program (RTTP)This program offers an interesting and rewarding type of work to help in training radiographers who are important members in the health care team. The school provides a program which uses its own facility at AUBMC for the education and training of its radiographers. (More)
